Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Ancón?

Gross bookings per Ancón listing averaged $12,033 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Panamá Province average: $15,138), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Ancón listing brings in $1,790 in July, its best month, and $1,090 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 30% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $3,150+ a month, about 3.1 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $1,760 or more, roughly $760 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $513 or less, about half of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

July earns about 1.7 times what September does

Ancón Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

July 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in January 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Ancón Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Ancón Airbnb took in $12,033 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $670 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about $1,180 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $880 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $740 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $570 a month.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Ancón's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Ancón listings are booked on 66% or more of their nights, against 45% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $66 adds about $659 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $100 a night or more, against a median of $66. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about $1,120 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $1,790, against $1,090 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Ancón listings average 4.80 stars, and 36% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about $1,760 a month, against $1,000 for the average one.

  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge $100 or more, about $35 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about $66 a night.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Ancón?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Ancón it averaged $43 over the past year, from about $36 in a typical September to about $58 in a typical July.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $82+ per open night, about 2.7 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $50 or more, about $20 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $30 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $18 or less, about 60% of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Ancón

None of the 103 active listings in Ancón display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Ancón.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Ancón?
